Team Yankee Soviet Air Assault Platoon (x25 Figures)

Elite Paratroopers for Rapid Deployment Behind Enemy Lines

Historical Background:

The Soviet Air Assault Troops (VDV) were among the most elite units of the Warsaw Pact during the Cold War. Trained for airborne operations, these paratroopers were equipped to deploy rapidly by parachute or air-landed vehicles like the BMD, striking deep behind NATO lines to seize key objectives, disrupt logistics, and engage high-value targets. Armed with AK-74 rifles, RPG-7s, light machine guns, and anti-tank missiles, VDV platoons had the firepower and tactical flexibility to operate independently for extended periods. In Team Yankee, the Soviet Air Assault Platoon brings aggressive infantry tactics and elite training to your force, making them ideal for flanking maneuvers, urban combat, and objective-focused missions.
